West is different. Not only because it’s the first genuine German restaurant in Glasgow, but it also produces and sells its own beer (in litres!), being an independent brewery too. We tried some. It’s good.
This is food from the Old Country – Sauerkraut, schnitzels, bratwurst, and a spiced red cabbage mixed with ginger, all of which bring something unique to the area. You wouldn’t expect a German restaurant/brewery right next to Glasgow Green, but it works, and you certainly won’t leave thinking about a bag of chips on the way home. It may not be to everyone’s tastes, the train line right next to it can get a little distracting, and we also found it slightly odd that they continually played just one music track over and over, but you could do a lot worse after a walk in the park.
